Conte at Chelsea, saying the Italian is the coach
who has shown most faith in him throughout his
career.
Real Madrid and Chelsea agreed terms over a
transfer for the Spain international on Wednesday,
believed to be in the region of £70million.
Morata has previously spoken of being "indebted"
to Conte, who brought the youngster to Juventus,
but never coached him due to taking the Italy job.
Having scored 15 LaLiga goals in just 14 starts for
Madrid last term, Morata believes finally playing
under Conte will help him improve further.
Morata told Spanish media: "I'm going to the team
managed by the coach who has placed the most
faith in me, and that's great for me."
Though he struggled to break into Zinedine
Zidane's plans last term, Morata holds no grudge
over his former boss and no regrets over returning
to Madrid - though he has conceded that a third
spell at the Santiago Bernabeu is unlikely.
He added of Zidane: "I have thanked him for
everything, and wished him luck for this year.
"I've won four titles, among them my second
Champions League with Madrid. I leave happy
because the last time I pulled on the Madrid shirt
was in Cibeles [square in the Spanish capital]."
Pedro, Cesar Azpilicueta and Cesc Fabregas are
international colleagues who await at Stamford
Bridge, a factor that enthuses Morata.
"I have spoken with Azpilicueta," Morata said. "And
also with Fernando Torres, who has told me he'll
give me a hand with whatever I need."
